Uniqlo
wants to make shopping for clothes as easy as buying a chocolate

The Japanese retailer is launching new vending machines in 10
locations across the US, including malls and airports.

These so-called "Uniqlo To Go" machines will stock
two of the most popular items from the brand's "LifeWear"
collection: a thermal heat-tech T-shirt ($14.90) and a
lightweight down jacket ($69.90). These will come in different
sizes and colors.

Customers will be able to choose the product with a click of a
button and pay using the machine.

The vending machines allow Uniqlo to open in different markets
and grow their presence in the US without having to commit to
investing in stores. It also allows them to take advantage of
foot traffic in busy airports.
